Yes of course a 13 year old can speak to a judge but not privately because other people may be thinking negatively about this action even though you may not be thinking that way. Yes, a 13-year-old can request a private, confidential discussion with the judge when the matter is related to the current proceedings, such as custodial issues. The decision is left entirely up to the judge's descretion as there are no statutes relating to such a matter.
